The Uptown Savages' sound has drawn listeners of all persuasions to Midwest roadhouses and festivals for over a decade. Their music is not programmed and doesn't fit neatly into any one "scene". If you're a purist, be warned. There is nothing "pure" about the Uptown Savages. The band plays their music the only way they know how - full throttle, drinking from the bottle.
This album was recorded live at the Miramar Theater in Milwaukee, Wiscosin with the barest of over-dubs. It's as honest of a representation of the Savages' incendiary live performance as you can get.
Grab some drinks, push the furniture back, roll up the rug and get ready to go Crazy Crazy Crazy!

The group began in the late ’90s playing rockabilly and hillbilly boogie, but changed course after Ziegler visited New Orleans. “The focus on this record is on that New Orleans Fats Domino R&B sound,” he says. And that’s no lie: the Savages co-founder, Jack Stewart, keeps the Huey “Piano” Smith boogie rolling whether at mid- or up-tempo. Most songs are originals, with writing duties split down the middle between Stewart and Ziegler.

Another impression left by his Crescent City visit was the necessity of not one but two saxophonists. On Rock ’N’ Roll With You, Mary Rodgers holds down the bottom on baritone while Andrew Spadafora toots the tenor. Powerful, supple rhythms are set by drummer Bill Backes and Peter Balistreri on the upright bass. Ziegler trades guitar with Dave Smith while singing with authoritative gusto.

Wisconsin music buffs will note the name of The Uptown Savages’ record label, Cuca. The historic company began in the polka era of the 1950s and became one of the early rock ’n’ roll labels in the Badger State. Cuca’s owner James Kirchstein has bestowed his blessings on the project.
